So just replace the "pdf" with "pptx" in the command line. So, it might look something like this: soffice -headless -convert-to pptx TestFile.ppt Regards Stephan -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

When this message was first posted it was hoped that it would be ignored; it is an example of yet another senseless question. To avoid tautology, see: http://www.mail-archive.com/users@global.libreoffice.org/msg11812.html. One wonders what Mr Stallman would make of these posts; seemingly symptomatic of the dual-boot m$/ubuntuisation of the free software paradigm. You should consider these questions posed; those that responded: please use your intelligence wisely! Think strategically about the long-term benefit to _odf_, not petty metrics such as pursuing "most prolific responder (regardless of the actual quality!)" award. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] converting ppt documents to pptx in headless mode
Hi :) I think he needs to be able to do this from a command-line without opening LibreOffice in order to be able to write a script to do a LOT quite quickly. There is then a custom-made program for them to extract specific parts of the PptXs. Sadly even programmers are largely unaware of OpenDocument Formats but this will improve as LO edges into the market.
